RE: Saving a GdkDrawable/GdkPixmap to a picture file

Thanks. The gkd/gtkx.h helped with the display, but I still don't see how to
get an X Pixmap from a GdkPixmap. I see GdkPixmap *gdk_pixmap_foreign_new()
to go from X Pixmap to GdkPixmap, but I'd like to go the other way so that I
can use XpmWriteFileFromPixmap() to write it. Is there something I'm
overlooking? (I'm figuring the likely answer is 'yes.')

Thanks again.

Raj

See gdk/gdkx.h.
